Can a '12 KtG+ Land a BA DL?

You'd probably have much better luck with an older vintage of Kate. Particularly with the bottle size decrease for the 2012 vintage, people haven't seemed to "value" it nearly as much.

 

I highly doubt this could get done unless the + is way more than locals. Kate was a lot easier to get this year with the bottle size change and increase from about 900 to 2K. I guess the fact that the brewery might not brew it again might tempt someone but i would say its a longshot at best.

 

It's a long shot. 2 '12 Kates or one older Kate, quite possibly. But one 2012 Kate puts you behind in both volume and bottle count.

 

You can get a Kate for much less than a BA Dark Lord. I would say chances are slim.

 

If you had a Kate, original Kabert, new Kabert, Struise's BA Kate, double oaked kate, double oaked kabert, and sour kabert I think you could land a BA DL.

 

I'm exaggerating a bit but people seem to ask a high price for the BA DLs. Even the not so impressive ones.

 

FTFY.

That's a gross over-exaggeration. I think the four or five from that list should do it.

 

If you go to DLD you think everyone who has a BA DL has multiples.

 

Just one? I've been pretty underwhelmed by most of the ones I've had so far given what it takes to land one. I liked the brandy vanilla though.

 

I've had all eight, and the only one that I found disappointing was last year's Muerte (way too much green pepper tast and not enough spice).

However, I've been known to like regular ol' Dark Lord. I don't know if you can say the same...

 

If it helps I traded my BA DL for batch 1 bba hi fi, king henry, bcbvs, and black Tuesday, and mine was the muerte. Hope this helps op

 

I've had 5 or 6 of them. Never liked Dark Lord very much. I can only handle it in small doses.

 

lol

 

Something funny?
